setState() Function

• Introduced in version 1.3b40

Sets the value of the State on Token. If The value is false(0) then the State is unset if it is non-zero(true(1)) then it is set.

Usage

setState(state, value)
setState(state, value, tokenRef)
setState(state, value, tokenRef, mapname)

Parameters

• state - The name of the state to set on the token.
• value - The value of the state to set, true(1) or false(0).
• tokenRef - Either the token id or Token Name of the token to have the State set. Defaults to the Current Token.

   Note: This parameter can only be used in a Trusted Macro. 

• mapname - The name of the map to find the token. Defaults to the current map.

Token IDs are unique, but Token Names can be duplicated. Using Token Name when more than one token has the same name can produce unexpected results.

Examples

To set the "Dead" Token State on the Current Token

[h: setState("Dead", 1)]

To reset the "Dead" Token State on the Current Token

[h: setState("Dead", 0)]
